Moderate Risk of Severe Weather Tomorrow

The National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center's (SPC) Convective Outlook (CO) for tomorrow indicates that the entire state of Indiana has a "moderate risk" of severe weather tomorrow (Thursday, Oct. 18). The SPC uses the "moderate risk" assessment somewhat rarely. Although the CO is somewhat technical, if you read through it, you'll get a pretty good idea of what the SPC is expecting. You can find it at http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/day2otlk.html (if you look today, Wednesday, Oct. 17) or http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/day1otlk.html (if you wait until tomorrow morning, Thursday, Oct. 18, to look). The staff of The New Q101 recommends that you stay tuned throughout the day tomorrow so that you will be aware of any watches and/or warnings that the National Weather Service might issue.
